I’m not a techie, so I find myself wondering just what the repercussions would have been if they’d said hell no. Would Firefox users be forced to switch over to IE to watch Netflix? Because that seems like a much much better solution than just waiving their principles. Or are they planning to so thoroughly break the internet that whatever the hell the current version is (that menu of icons refuses to tell me) would be unable to read BoingBoing or… I dunno… some page that’s ten years old?
